Video: Man attends L.A. City Council meeting in KKK robe

← return to Water Cooler

KTLA News reported yesterday that a Los Angeles City Council meeting was interrupted by an individual who walked in wearing a Ku Klux Klan robe and hood. Michael Hunt, an African American, wore the robe into the city council meeting and refused to remove his hood when it was his time to speak. After three African American city council members left out of disgust, the meeting ended. It is still unclear why Mr. Hunt wore the KKK garb into the meeting; however, according to KTLA Hunt recently won a $260,000 settlement against the city challenging its vending ordinance in federal court as a violation of his rights and may use his latest stunt to sue the city again over a violation of his First Amendment rights.
